about

WELCOME TO THE MODERN WORLD

CARVER COMMODORE’S SOPHOMORE LP (HEREBY KNOWN AS WTTMW) WAS RECORDED DURING LOCKDOWN IN 2020. THE BAND ONCE AGAIN COLLABORATED WITH PRODUCER BRENDAN ST. GELAIS AT ST. UDIO IN NASHVILLE, TN. OVER 5 SESSIONS FROM MARCH TO DECEMBER 2020, 17 SONGS WERE COMPLETED. 13 OF THOSE ARE ON THIS RECORD.

WTTMW OUTLINES THE UNIQUE EXPERIENCE OF GROWING UP IN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT WORLD THAN ANY OTHER GENERATION. A WORLD WHERE DISASTERS THAT ONCE DEFINED ERAS ARE NOW THE NEW NORMAL.

SIT RIGHT BACK & ENJOY THE SHOW.

Carver Commodore recommends:

Twirlin'
by Rock Eupora

It's rawk. It's rull. And it's so much fun. We've played many a shows together. You just have to see the RE boys for yourself. 10/10 would recommend seeing them live ASAP! Favorite track: "Cut Loose" Carver Commodore

Live At The Nick
by Lee Bains + The Glory Fires

If you're familiar with AL music, I'm sure you've heard of LB III. Live, raw, and commanding. We were supposed to play in TX together once. Long live the nasty Nick! Favorite track: "Flags!" Carver Commodore

Bittersweet
by Space Tyger

Hometown hero! After many listens, I feel that frontman Kyle relates to our small town artist "predicament" - it's positives, and it's negatives. But mostly the honesty. Favorite track: "Shake" Carver Commodore
